Metabolic Formulas
Metabolic Disorders – The body cannot absorb or process specific amino acids or other components of food. If left untreated, diseases such as phenylketonuria, homocystinuria, tyrosinemia and maple syrup urine disease can lead to severe complications, including major organ damage, mental disabilities, central nervous system disorders and death.
PKU (phenylketonuria) – A disorder characterized by elevated levels of the amino acid Phe (phenylalanine). In abnormally high levels, Phe is toxic to the brain. If left untreated, it can cause problems with brain development, leading to progressive mental retardation, brain damage, seizures, mood and behavioral disorders.
Homocystinuria – A disorder characterized by elevated levels of the amino acid methionine. Symptoms often show up during infancy and include mental retardation, skeletal abnormalities and thromboembolic disease.
Tyrosinemia – A disorder characterized by elevated levels of the amino acid tyrosine. The buildup of tyrosine can lead to serious medical problems, including abnormalities of the liver and kidneys.
Glutaric Aciduria – A disorder characterized by elevated levels of the amino acids lysine, hydroxylysine and tryptophan. Glutaric aciduria is divided into multiple types, with symptoms that include damage to the brain region that controls movement, as well as vomiting, behavior changes, and liver and heart damage.
MSUD (maple syrup urine disease) – A disorder characterized by elevated levels of specific amino acids, including valine and leucine. The condition gets its name from the distinctive sweet odor produced in the urine. Symptoms can start in early infancy and include poor feeding, vomiting, lethargy and developmental delay. If left untreated, MSUD can lead to mental retardation, seizures and death.
